1950s Oak armchair made in France but designed by Parker Knoll, British
About the Item
A Great Combination of French and British Design and craftsmanship.
The chair is beautifully made with a very distinctive 1950s design. Parker Knoll moved some manufacturing from Germany to France after the war and that is how I believe the design and place of origin for this chair came into being. The chair has been re-upholstered in a plain linen to accentuate the classic 50s lines of the chair. The French oak has a beautiful patina.

This exhibition was a direct reaction by British abstract artists to the recent exhibitions in London of the American Abstract Expressionists in particular the Tate's 1959 exhibition The New American Painting.
This painting is an early work and was given to the vendor by Marc Vaux’s wife . It explores Vuax’s early fascination and love of colour. Using a minimal palette Vaux extracts so much information from what he’s seeing putting it down on board in the most effervescent and exquisite manner
In 1986, Vaux was appointed Head of Painting at the Central/St Martins College of Art and Design in London where he stayed until he retired in 1989 to concentrate full-time on painting
Vaux's work has variously been described as minimalist and constructivist although since his primary interest is in colour and light he has more in common with the American west coast artists than the New York minimalists...
